Help the McGee’s Rebuild After Eaton Canyon Fires

My name is Lauren McGee and I am writing this on behalf of my mother Candace-Sweet McGee and my brother Lance McGee, as we deal with the unimaginable pain of losing our childhood home of 23 years due to the Eaton Fire in Altadena, California.

This home has been a physical symbol and a constant reminder of how God has KEPT us. Some of you may know my mother’s story, but for those of you who do not, this home is by-far one of my mother’s GREATEST achievements in life and we are devastated to have lost EVERYTHING. My mom and brother evacuated at 3 am yesterday morning and only left with the clothes on their backs.

My mother and Lance currently do not have the basic necessities to live everyday life. All donations will help with their temporary needs (i.e., basic necessities).

My family wants to make this absolutely CLEAR — we are in NO way attempting to take advantage of the situation we are in by asking for donations. We have been approached by so many family and friends with questions and inquiries about how they can help and we felt this was genuinely the best way to divert this help to one place. Please know we are DEEPLY appreciative of all the calls, texts, and any monetary help you wish to lend us. We ask that in addition to your donations that you continue to PRAY for us and our community as we grieve what we used to call “home.” Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

With heavy hearts,

The McGee Family
